- Wonder Man has posed:
It is later in the afternoon, as a rule, they do not set meetings this late in the day nor with this little notice. Still, this one was set. Some meeting with a soulless television executive? It apparently does not matter Jennifer Walters is a criminal defense attorney and an expert on metahumanity and the law.
After telling her staff to let him there is a long pause. The figure that does eventually enter the room is not a the soulless television talking head she expected. Over six feet tall. Muscular. Dark haired. Wearing a pair of Oakleys in the building. Simon Williams, also known as Wonder Man. He pulls his shades off his face to reveal his red eyes. "Hiya Jennifer?" He says in his warm deep voice, his lips quirking into a tentative smile that is swiftly moving towards a shit-eating grin. "I need an attorney, and you are the only one in the world that I want. I figured, well, I should set an appointment so you can bill me. I promise, my show will pay."
He pauses and looks around the place. "Not bad digs, Jenn." He slowly starts to open up his arms as if to offer a hug. "You've done so great, everyone is so proud of you."
- She-Hulk has posed:
Jennifer, currently in her fabulous green guise, is sitting at her desk. She grins a little. "Well, I suppose I can't turn down an entry like that. Come on over, take a seat, Simon. What brings you by?" She leans back in her chair, crossing her legs. She doesn't need to be too formal for this.
- Wonder Man has posed:
Not going after the hug, which to be fair was a long shot, Simon smiles even wider as he sits down. "I have a show!" He announces. "No really. I've filmed episodes. It's good. And not when I lie and say my stuff is good. I have a real show, a science show. It's like a kid-friendly interactive mybusters where I am both the two brainy guys and the dummy!" Simon settles into the chair, allowing himself to sink into it, and once he is there, his mood changes. "It's really good, Jenn. It's funny. It's real science. It is entertaining. This isn't another killer gorilla movie."
How many of those ahs he made again?
"It's really good. It has a good message about science and technology being fun, and if this is the thing I get remembered for? I'm all in. I need you, though. I need a good lawyer. You are gorgeous. You are smart. People will believe you when you speak. You are the real deal. I need you to read our legal disclaimer that tells people not to do the stunts that I do. We even put a joke in it. It's perfect for you."
- She-Hulk has posed:
Jen looks rather curious. "I'll have to check it out, but...I'm not an entertainment lawyer, Simon. I mean, if you just want me there for the public appearance value, I'm happy to DO it, but you should understand I'm not really qualified in all the ins and outs of entertainment law." she warns, as she looks back to him. "The notion of a new mythbusters-style show IS pretty cool, though."
- Wonder Man has posed:
"Nope. I want you, and not in the way I normally do." Simon says with a teasing wink. "I mean it. I want you, in your lawyer clothes to read the little disclaimer we show on the scene. You will command respect and when -you- say it is dangerous, people will listen. You'll get to be yourself. People will listen to you because you are a lawyer and one of the strongest people on the planet. If the kids hear She-Hulk saying nmot to do it, they will not do it because you are the Sensational She-Hulk!" Simon pauses, and leans forwards in his chair. "I want you to be you. I want you to read a line, look amazing, and have some fun with it. Trust me, it will be tasteful. I promise."
- She-Hulk has posed:
Jen laughs. "Fine. You've got me for it. PENDING my approval of the line." Because she wouldn't put it past Simon to try and sneak something in there. "And you can bill your show for whatever they can afford."
- Wonder Man has posed:
"Jenn, gorgeous, She-Hulk? it's a kid show. All I can promise is a professional outfit you can keep, a meal on set, scale wages, and a name in the credits." He pauses. "It's a kid's science show. All the money is in the science." Simon pauses."Heck. I am not making a ton of money and I have a producer credit!"
- She-Hulk has posed:
"Hey, you're the one who opened up with a promise that your show would pay." Jen smiles. "But that's fine. Like you said, it's a kid's show. Between you and me, I'd do it for free. When are we doing this, what do I need to wear, do they have hair and makeup or am I doing my own...all the nuts and bolts."
- Wonder Man has posed:
"You show up. Wear comfortable clothes. The staff has a wardrobe. It will be professional and tasteful, but flattering. Hair and make up will be done by us. Expect glasses. We want you to look smart."
Simon pauses. "Not that you don't look smart. It.. it just helps. Trust me! You'll read your line from a teleprompter. We might have you sit on the corner of a fancy desk and look like an authority?" Simon tilts his head to the left and pulls in a breath. "No. Really. It's that simple."
- She-Hulk has posed:
"It's okay. I wear glasses at court. For much the same reason." She's not above manipulating people's opinions of her. "Sounds good. When are we going to do this?" Jen looks over at the clock for a moment, then touches a button on her phone. "Louise, I'm calling it a day. Thanks."
- Wonder Man has posed:
"Tomorrow? When are you available. Either early or late works best, that way you can still do your job. Depends on if you want to do it after work, or if you trust my costume folks enough to risk wearing something you hate to work. Don't worry, it has an accent piece of that purple color you like so much."" Simon leans back, and then changes gears. 'You still Avenging? Last I heard you had taken a step back." It's a quick change of subject. Simon styles his chin on his knuckles. His elbow settles on the arm of his chair.
- She-Hulk has posed:
"It's an on and off kind of thing." Jen moves to stand. "I'm calling it a day. C'mon, Wonder Man. You can buy a girl a drink, and you can tell me what this line is I'm going to be reading." she says, as she picks up her purse.
- Wonder Man has posed:
"Given your stature, I'll buy you two." Simon hops to his feet and offers her his hand. "If you know where you want to go and can give me directions I'll even give you a lift?" Simon slides his sunglasses on to the bridge of his nose and situates them with the one hand.
"The line is: Remember, these experiments should not be done by anyone, especially Simon. Science is fun, but it should always be done in a safe place with responsible adults." His lips quirk into a warm smile as he finishes the line. "You'll spend more time getting your hair and make up done than you will reading it."
